Re: How often do you get physically annoyed playing poker?
I hadn't reacted to a badbeat poorly in over a year until this month. I have run so damn badly, and began yelling and screaming all the time and throwing repeated punches into my mattress. Also, remember the thread where I disconnected, I threw some random crap on my desk into the wall after slamming my fist real hard into the desk. My Roommate who has never seen me react badly came running in and said what happened and I showed him.

Things I've done: When I lived with my parents, pulled the matress off my single bed and stuffed it out of the second floor window. Got my metal baseball bat out and sprinted into the back garden where i beat said matress full on for about 20 minutes before feeling silly and dragging it back upstairs. Sat in my chair after a bad beat screaming like a girl until I lost my voice. Playing 50/100 limited hold them hu. Lost about 8 pots in a row. Calmly ticked the sit out button, unplugged Nintendo 64 from tv (removing Goldeneye first obv.) walked downstairs and got a massive claw hammer from the tool box and smashed N64 into tiny pieces. No shouting or anythin this time, had a sick bastard calm face like De Niro in Goodfellas when he's stamping on that guys head in the bar. Then cleaned it all up and carried on playing. Smashed/threw/pulled apart about 15 mice. I even crushed one little Microsoft cordless laptop one into pieces with one hand. Plenty of keyboards too. I don't play much poker now. One of my friends actually ripped a door off its hinges and broke it over his own head. He need stitches and a new door cost over a hundred quid. [/ QUOTE ] more please

Re: How often do you get physically annoyed playing poker?
I get pissed a lot when someone sucks out on me, but I don't let it affect my play. I'm very good at not going on tilt and haven't been on tilt in 2 years.

The mental image of the N64 thing is absolutely hilarious.

Re: How often do you get physically annoyed playing poker?
I am to the point where things have to go badly for an extended run of hands for me to get upset about beats. (It was every session when I started playing poker.)
However, there was a stage in February where I ran so bad for so long that I punched the side of my own head and desk so much that am pretty sure I gave my right hand a stress fracture. (It never got diagnosed because I never went to the doctor's, I mean, do you really want to tell your doctor that playing on-line poker makes you hurt yourself?) Live poker I am pretty good, but one time, some kid at the Borgata sucked out on me for close to a grand in the $1/$2 NL game and then taunted me, I am not sure how long I saw red, but for the next 30 minutes all I could think of was following him out to parking lot and curbing his teeth.

And I thought you were very disturbed. I only do a sort of combination between a and b. I groan very loudly and sort of punch my right fist into my left open palm. Last night I did it so hard that I actually hurt myself a little bit. Then I take a nice, long break(about 20 minutes, then I get the itch again).
